Problem #12: A Reminder App for Non-Tech Businesses

Managers of factories usually seem to be on the call an awful lot. Why? Because they are making more calls co-ordinating and reminding people of things than actually initiating actions.

Solution: Build a system - a smart phone app which co-ordinates with a back-end server. Have your morning call, and then set reminders for your staff (supervisors, accountants etc). The app will send them periodic reminders, and the only way to stop the reminders would be to give a missed call (to the number attached to reminder). Once missed call is given, task turns green in the smart phone app of the big boss. Especially for those travelling, days could become way more processed with a morning call, getting everyone onboard, setting reminders, just keeping an eye on the activities done, and then towards the end of day, calling up just the failing ones.

Problem # 10 : Market Creation for Niche Brands

Large cosmetic brands such as MAC etc are trying to enter India. As of now, there is not enough density of target audience to justify making an entry into India. If there was a way they could identify pockets of audiences that are their users, it would make the entry phenomenally easier.

Problem #9: Show me the Future

Plenty of constructions - apartments, highways etc. Most of the time, the quibble is because as citizens we cannot see how things will look when it will be complete. We also see enough construction complexes around the neighbourhood, but people are often curious how the building would look when complete. Activate a augmented reality app which based on trackers can show you virtually what the place would look like on completion?

Problem #8 Metrics for Growth Hackers

Growth hacking is the new term in the Startup world. Yet most people dont have anything beyond Google analytics on their site, and the google analytics is measuring no more than hits - page views and visits, and in some cases pretty looking demographics info. Can a mix of Google analytics and Mixpanel / Kiss metrics allow for outsourced Growth numbers, like SEOMoz did for SEO?
